Welcome to Growing Your Legacy!
We’re so glad you found us! The Growing Your Legacy project is a partnership between the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (WDNR) and the Wisconsin Woodland Owners Association (WWOA). It’s all about connecting woodland owners like yourself to resources that can help you better manage your land and accomplish your goals.
We are here to help whether you have owned your land for years, are just starting out, or are on your way to being a land owner in the future.
I want to start now!
